Mike Wood replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Good luck Jessica - whichever path you choose.
Take much advice with a pinch of salt eh. You are only limited by what You believe You cannot do. If you Will It - it will happen. (When given 100%)"
Jessica Jean replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Thanks Patrick. This is makes my head spin...can they make it any more confusing? So do I need my DMT before getting my ALST? I don't think I'll be working as a diver/tender, since I'm 34 yrs old, and that along with being female…"
Bill Gardner replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"It's never a bad idea to check IMCA website, for example there is a IMCA DMT recertification course on at Seneca College, Ontario-Canada starting March 22-26 2010."
Patrick O Shea replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"If you want to do a IMCA DMT course they are conducted in a few places in the UK and in South Africa in one place and also in a Place in Singapore. I would recommend the one in DDRC (diving diseases research center) in the UK. Its also one of the…"
Laura McGregor replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Having worked at Global I know they will hire you and put you on a list , but you have to tell them that you are interested in taking the DMT or LST courses. Never heard of ADMT. I believe ALST becomes full blown LST after 1000 panel hours. I…"
Daniel Kelly replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"they mentioned the DMT certification quite a bit while I was in school, but to this day I've only met one person who is actively trying to earn theirs and seems to know where the hell to look. Like alot of people seem to be saying though, i…"
E J replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Epic is not currently working anywhere extending beyond the GOM but are seeking contracts elsewhere. However, they are transitioning all existing employees to the IMCA standard in preparation for the inevitable conversion. It would be more efficient…"
E J replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Hey, if you hang with Epic long enough, they'll get you DMT certified in-house and pay you your off-shore rate I believe while you're doing it. 21 days straight then your test whenever. They don't pay much but have lots of training…"
Mike Wood replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"More than that Jess it is folk & organisation's trying to rip you off.
Box clever kid eh, check it all out."
Jessica Jean replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Thanks Mike. I just noticed that Epic requires an IMCA cert in order to apply. I'm sure I'll weed through all this...there seems to be so many certifications out there...so many governing bodies...it's acronym soup! :)"
Mike Wood replied to Jessica Jean's discussion New Girl on the Block"Yes I did Jess - Quoted :
"There is no IMCA/HSE ticket. IMCA recognises certification schemes; DCBC, HSE and ADAS equally. Second, DCBC, HSE and ADAS recognise each other equally. The U.S. does not have a government scheme and therefore does…"

Hey guys, I'm a new girl on the block, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm just finishing up dive school in Santa Barbara (MDT), and will be graduating in May. It's time for me to start fishing around and see what's out there for jobs and which companies might bite. I'm getting my EMT right now, and looking at getting my DMT/LST. If anyone has any insight on the complicated process of becoming a DMT, or which companies I should go for, please let me know. Every time I talk to someone about it,…See More
